There was not a boiler suit.....or nipple tassle, in sight last thursday when BORtUsk LeeR finally unveiled his latest creations.

"Like a nifty neon needle of street monster smack straight in the retinas"

Step into Tony's Gallery tonight and you'd be forgiven for thinking Mr Leer may have slipped on his nu-rave Bible with a fluoro machine gun in his hand. Feeling blue post-bank holiday double whammy? Bortusk and his monsters are the perfect antidote - swap your blues for pinks, purples and blinding yellows. You may have seen his tutti-frutti goggle eyed friends lurking down backalleys and tormenting fashionistas all over Shoreditch. Like Superhanz in a tophat, this cockney pied piper has rounded up his day-glo tribe and packed them into Tony's to celebrate this new gallery's opening. Expect unashamed cheeriness and high jinx. Bortusk goes nowhere without his spanking cane, 'muck cake' brandishing assistants and the promise of mischief.
